Criminology with Study Abroad (BSc)

Criminology is the scientific study of criminal behaviour, laws and justice. It is a multidisciplinary subject comprising elements of sociology, law, social and public policy, history, psychology and philosophy. BSc Criminology with Study Abroad is an exciting four-year course that gives you the opportunity to study criminology within a broader framework of policy studies. You will also have the opportunity to study at a partner university overseas in your third year. The course will provide you with an understanding of crime and justice and related social harms and an analysis of public policy interventions that contribute towards a fairer, safer and harm-free society. In year three you will be able to study overseas at one of our partner institutions, gaining insight into social science debates in another country and exploring the culture of a new city.

The first year introduces key concepts in criminological study. Units in this year will familiarise you with theoretical and conceptual debates about the meaning and existence of crime, harm and deviance in contemporary society, the way that crime is understood and represented, and the range of responses to various crimes. From your second year, you will be able to explore your interests in greater depth through a wide range of optional units which focus on contemporary, real-world criminological issues. You may also choose a work placement option in the second year, providing the opportunity to gain employment-related skills and experience in an organisation connected to your studies. You will spend your third year at one of our partner institutions overseas, where you can take criminology or broader social sciences, arts and humanities subjects. You will return to Bristol for the final year of the course, which is identical to the third year of BSc Criminology, and will complete a dissertation and further criminology-related units.
